The Sisters Restaurant in San Lorenzo should be a stop on your tour of our fine region. the sisters have been baking, cooking and playing hostess to guests from around the world for over 20 years. Nancy and Rita have been serving up dishes that take you back to the old days - that translates to homey comfort foods with the flavor of their Italian Heritage. Try to visit them before they close their doors in mid-September.
Now, on to my culinary endeavors. Since coming to the Gila House Hotel Bed & Breakfast as manager, I have been digging into my little bag of tricks and pulling out some of my all time favorite recipes. At a Bed and Breakfast, the Breakfast part of the package is most important and I love firing up the oven early in the morning and smelling that wonderful aroma of muffins and banana bread and coffee cake and sticky buns and....OK, I have to get control of myself.
So, last night I was looking through some recipes for bread, one of my all time favorite things to bake, and turned the page to see a vision of delight - warm, gooey caramel-ly sticky buns. Sticky Buns are so full of wonderful memories for me. In my childhood, they were called Schnecken and my Daddy made them for us. It was a really special occasion when we would wake up on a cool morning and smell that brown sugar and cinnamon. Since I was the oldest, I almost always won the battle over who got to pick the crunchy crumbles from the pan. Well, it is Schnecken making time at the Gila House Bed & Breakfast. I can't wait to hear the lips smackin' and fingers lickin' at our weekend brunch.
Jump over to our website to plan your stay at the Gila House Hotel Bed & Breakfast. I promise a warm plate of Schnecken.
